High-spin phenomena in 194Hg

Περίληψη

High-spin states in the isotope 194Hg were populated using the 150Nd(40Ca,4n) reaction at a beam energy of 213 MeV. The analysis of γ-γ coincidences, which were detected using the EUROGAM detector array, has revealed two new structures at excitation energies above 6 MeV and at moderate spin. The first one could be interpreted as a manifestation of a band termination phenomenon while the second one is associated with a single-particle decay mode.
